In again with the usual beer token.

Did we win much yesterday?

As I live abroad my UK account doesn't have much activity but I noticed of the most recent ten items, six are paying Spud! Of course I expect that after Friday we will all have a nice big credit to our accounts from the good man.

Top work spud as always. Cheers

£45 ish across all groups - not checked the breakdown yet.

Emailing newbies.

Bugger, just got home and missed the 5pm deadline frown

You're fine to transfer if you do it in the next 11 minutes (I am waiting for my weekly 1k limit to reset on the lottery website, else I can't afford to buy them all). That way it's been exactly 168 hours since I last loaded my account on last Friday. So the time varies on each occasion. It's not an issue when the draw is won quickly, but when we buy circa 400/450 quid's worth on a Friday, Tuesday and then a Friday again, you need the limit to reset else you've only got 100 ish left.

I could request more, I guess, but haven't. I already requested in the past to move from whatever the default weekly limit is (200/300?) to 1k.

By the way, I had an email from the lottery as a syndicate manager to tell me I need to check that no one is under 18, as the lottery's terms are changing from 16 to 18 in April. I know that almost everyone probably is over 18 (some considerably more so than others hehe

) but just to flag up. I will also put it in the next email/terms.

Just in case there's a scooterhead in here that rides a hairdryer.

(Yes, I realise the irony in that when driving a TTRS. Recent pic below with the Vorsteiner forged wheels!)

I forgot to do the tickets on Tuesday, so put them on for tomorrow instead. Worked in our favour - bigger draw tomorrow. All tickets are for the group from last Fri - all other rounds before that are now dead.

100m is the line. Otherwise we just itch continually downwards and it loses its special nature

If it's not won on Friday at 99m then of course we will be in for Tuesday smile

Email reminder sent. I'm kind of half on holiday at the moment, but was in interviewing yesterday until late (two of my schools finished on Friday, but one is still open). And I fell asleep watching Designated Survivor so didn't get around to emailing last night hehe

Hopefully get a good few in for an Easter bonanza smile

I may have missed a couple of emails.

As per the syndicate agreement, transferring funds indicates you accept the terms about winning/rolling over/etc. If you've sent money then you agree to everything on the email.

I try and keep a list up to date in Excel, but I sometimes forget to add people to it and use a paste from my outbox, which isn't always up to date.
